The Experience

Before You Go

Wear closed-toe athletic shoes

Closed sports shoes are mandatory during the zipline; bring flip-flops for after the activity.

Bring a change of clothes and towel

You’ll likely get wet on the Mega Splash landing—pack a lightweight dry set and towel stored in a locker.

Hydrate and protect from sun

Punta Cana is tropical—drink water before the run and use reef-safe sunscreen for skin protection.

Follow weight/height rules

Minimum height ~1.30 m (4.27 ft) and max weight ~130 kg (280 lb); staff enforce limits for safety.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Hoyo Azul at Scape Park (short drive) for a vivid blue cenote swim
  • Ojos Indígenas Ecological Park—short trails and freshwater lagoons away from main beaches

Wildlife

  • Green iguana (basking in open areas)
  • Tropical coastal birds such as herons and kingfishers

Conservation Note

Respect marked areas, avoid stray litter, and use reef-safe sunscreen; the park manages equipment and lockers to minimize impact on nearby lagoons.

Bávaro’s coast transitioned from sugarcane and small fishing settlements to tourism development in the 1970s–1990s, shaping parks and resorts in La Altagracia province.
